I am currently supervising 13 MA students. My students to date have a 98% successful thesis completion rate. I encourage students to use my research on e-dialogues as a unique data collection and on-line focus group methodology which gives them experience in leading-edge research dissemination; 6 student-led e-dialogues have taken place. I work with my students to ensure that their research, where appropriate, is policy-relevant and grounded in the real world. For example, the case study tool is now integrated into my M.A. and M.Sc course, and their assignment is to apply their knowledge from the classroom to a selected case analysis. In the interests of timely research diffusion, I encourage them, upon completion of their thesis, to publish a journal article and a case study, again using the online case study tool. Three of my students have published in well-known peerreviewed journals and 8 have published a summary of their research online. My research program has engaged over 8 students as RAs and I have attracted a doctoral candidate and 3 post-doctoral scholars to work with me. I have encouraged my students to publish in my book compilations (3 of whom have published successfully), and have negotiated research time from the federal government for two to continue to work on my research projects, as research collaborators.
